We have this little web-to-print directory at Web-to-print & dynamic imaging directory Nothing fancy, but the vendors email us with corrections or asking for a review. Got an email from PrintSites.com asking for a review / correction. Started looking at their site, followed to a press release...

Heh. They are dime a dozen these days. Some are even free. Which one is yours?

A certain Belmark Inc owns a trademark for use of "web-to-print" for printing labels since 1999. USPTO TDR Document Viewer and all docos are here United States Patent and Trademark Office hehe :) The thing is, there is absolutely nothing for online ordering whatsoever on their website...

"inexpensive" and "reliable" do not quite go together

Can anyone point me at a good website for ordering direct mail online? Ideally something like a one stop shop where I could upload my design, choose quantities, distribution area, dates, etc. What I see is either postal authorities sites with some monstrous ordering process or alternative...

" Basically, we'd like something similar to this: Flexcubed - Web2Print Solution" Why don't you use Flexcubed then? Looks pretty good to me as a basic t-shirt design app and it's only $300 all up.

A bit late to the party, but anyway. Interesting question, so here is a suggestion. Amazon offers pretty good entry level free hosting. This is not some bait and switch offer. They genuinely offer a free MICRO hosting which is plenty for a not so busy website. Get a Joomla, WordPress or Magento...

If all you are after are various topical designs in whatever format that you can turn into templates yourself then the task is rather easy. Every designer has a huge number of leftover designs. Buy them in bulk. Don't be too picky. Just ask for lots of 20. It may work out as low as $5. I...

Re: VistaPrint: Anybody Making a Run for Them? Heidi, your best bet is to go for a niche market. There is plenty of business sitting around waiting to be picked up. Just as an example, one of our printers set up templates for a popular franchise and approached individual franchisees. The trick...

Re: VistaPrint: Anybody Making a Run for Them? Max, the 3 patents they have ain't worth the paper their written on. The whole business is a scam. Just search for Vistaprint Scam. The printing quality is usually crap, customer service non-existent and you gonna get signed up for a monthly charge...
